Montblanc Mix green & black

[QUELO]

Hello everyone, 
hope to find you well. 
I tried mixing two Montblanc inks. To be precise MB Irish green and the MB permanent black in 3:2 ratio.

This is the result.

What do you guys think?

Look interesting, perhaps a bit too dark for my taste, but it could do a nice job for writing and readability. Brilliant inks, I usually find tiresome to read, this one looks like one color you could read tirelessly.

Yes, a nice experiment, @QUELO!

 

The dark green colour is appealing and will make nice handwriting appearance with fine and extrafine nibs.

 

Does the 40% permanent black result in a still water resistant mix?

Hi @InesF !
I made a video showing how the black part of the ink stays on the paper while the green part comes off with water.

I'm curious to try something like this with Asa-Gao and tsuki-yo

I like the look of that; much nicer than the old MB 'Racing Green' I once had. interesting that the black remains behind after a wash. Thank you.

Yes it is a lovely green!

I am reviving this with my thanks.

The splash and streak not so much but the script is absolutely intriguing.

This recipe is unique and fun but the Racing Green will still always dominate for me.

Best, M.
